Bid to review licence fee
Hull Daily Mail
|December 18, 2025
THE Government will look at reforming the licence fee and consider more commercial revenue options for the BBC in plans outlined in its royal charter review.
-
It comes amid disruption at the BBC following resignations from top executives and a lawsuit from US president Donald Trump, who is seeking up to 10 billion US dollars (£7.5bn) in damages in response to the editing of a speech he made before the 2021 attack on the Capitol that was featured in a Panorama episode.
The charter sets out the BBC's public purpose and is the constitutional basis for the corporation, which is predominately funded through the licence fee, paid by UK TV-watching households.
